148 Wavetronix comes to ITS America 2016 San Jose to showcase its SmartSensor range of nonintrusive radar detection for freeway management and intersection detection. As the company points out, it provides radar detection products designed specifically for roadway applications.

SmartSensors provide dynamic per vehicle detection delivering real-time data that traffic engineers need to keep their roads safe and efficient. Wavetronix says these products make intersection management and arterial management safe, efficient and intelligent.

All Wavetronix radar sensors are nonintrusive and provide accurate detection in various weather and lighting conditions. They require little to no maintenance which helps keep road workers out of the road and out of harm’s way. The SmartSensor product line that includes SmartSensor Matrix, SmartSensor Advance and SmartSensor HD will turn any city into a smart city.

Wavetronix says its SmartSensor Matrix corner-radar is a multi-lane traffic detector designed specifically for presence detection at the intersection stop bar. SmartSensor Advance is a forward-fire radar that improves safety and efficiency at the stopbar by providing dilemma zone protection for vehicles of all sizes and speeds, while SmartSensor HD is a side-fire radar that uses dual radar to create a speed trap resulting in accurate per vehicle speed data for arterial management.

At the company’s booth, Wavetronix will also be discussing how these products can be used for bicycle detection, signal performance measures and true presence detection.

    Colin Sowman looks at California’s ‘smartest’ road which will open this spring to counter congestion and accidents on one of the Bay Area’s busiest interstates. Interstate 80 (I-80) is one of the busiest roads in the San Francisco Bay area with up to 270,000 vehicles using the corridor every day. The section between the Carquinez Bridge in Crockett and the Bay Bridge not only suffers congestion during the working week but also at weekends.

    A fledgling advanced lane management assist system can take the guesswork out of selecting the right lane on a congested freeway, as its inventor Robert Gordon explains. As drivers we’ve all done it and control room staff see it all the time – motorists on congested freeways switching into what they perceive is a faster lane, only to come to a halt a few moments later and watch vehicles in the other lanes continue to move past. Now, by re-analysing readily available data in an advanced lane management as

Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
